§ Mr. Skeetasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he will recommend for the consideration of the shipbuilding industry that there should be one union for shipbuilding and that the several unions in the industry should amalgamate their interests in the interests of British shipbuilding to avoid demarcation problems between them.
§ Mr. John DaviesThe Commission on Industrial Relations in its report on the shipbuilding and ship repairing industry has made recommendations to improve the methods of resolving demarcation problems. The Government have commended the report to both sides of the industry and action on the basis of the C.I.R. recommendations seems to offer the most promising approach to these problems.
